Yes, the same two people clean your gutters and the outside of your windows in one visit. Gutters go first and the glass goes last, so nothing dirty from the roof lands on clean panes. We price the job by the number of stories and the approximate window count, and booking both together in one visit costs less than two separate trips. Across Colorado, most of our customers book this job in the spring and the fall.
Priced by stories, not by a visit. The bundle costs less than two trips, and the number on the phone is the number on the invoice.
Professional window cleaning and gutter work are priced together, and we price by the number of stories and the approximate window count. A bundle in one visit costs less than booking the two jobs separately, and the number we give on the phone is the number we charge. What moves the quote is what the crew finds on the day: multi-story buildings, a third story or a steep roof, window count and picture windows, gutters that have not been cleaned in years or are packed with needles and leaves, gutter guards that have to be lifted, and hard-water spotting from sprinklers that no cleaning removes. Downspout flushing, screen rinsing and sill wiping are part of the job and are not billed as extras.
Every quote starts with a few facts we can get from you without a visit. Tell us the number of stories, a rough count of windows, and send a photo of the front of the house by text. Heavy grime on the glass and clogged gutters are the two conditions that add the most time, and the photo usually shows both. A window washing visit also does more for curb appeal than most owners expect, and it does not touch the windows inside the house. Where the gutters have been neglected long enough to cause water damage at the fascia, the crew photographs it and reports it, and we quote only the cleaning.
We do not carry a case from Fairmount for this page, so we will not describe a particular house here. What we can tell you is that a repeat customer with regular cleanings usually gets a clearer number on the second visit, because the crew already knows the roof and the glass. Ask for a written estimate before you book by calling (866) 435-6328 if you want the figure on paper first.

For context, nationally. Angi puts the average US gutter cleaning at $168, most homeowners paying $119 to $234 (Angi, 2026). Exterior-only window cleaning runs roughly $4 to $10 per window, or $100 to $250 for a typical home, with $3 to $5 per window more on upper stories (Angi, HomeGuide, via Google AI Overview, Oct 2026). Priced by stories, the most common model, a two-story gutter cleaning sits around $150 to $300 nationally. If a quote you are holding sits far outside these, ask what is driving it.
On every house we work, the first scoop out of a gutter ends up on the wall below it. We put the glass last so it ends up there once.
Gutters first, glass last. That is the order on every job our crew does, and it is the reason we book both with one crew instead of sending two.
What we see from the ladder. When we clear a run, the leaves, the grit and the black water that sits under them come down the wall and across any window below it. Flushing a downspout throws more of it, in a stream, onto the panes beside the outlet. If the glass was washed first, someone has to wash them again before we are off the ladder. So we do the roof blow-off, clear the gutters, flush every downspout, give the wall a few minutes to stop dripping, and only then start on the glass. The panes under the downspout outlets are the last ones we touch on the house.
Two things we do differently from a window-only crew. We rinse the siding under each run before we move to the glass, so nothing left on the wall washes down onto it in the first rain. And we do the top-floor glass from the same ladder position as the gutter run, one setup per side of the house, which is where the bundle saving comes from: no second trip, no second setup.
Downspouts flushed, screens rinsed, sills wiped, bags hauled. None of it shows up as a line item.
Gutters. Roof blow-off where debris sits above the gutter line. Every run hand-cleared, not just the visible stretch from the ground. Every downspout flushed with water until it runs clear, and a blocked one cleared on the spot where it can be reached from above. A downspout that feeds a buried drain line is checked at the outlet; clearing the buried line is a separate job, quoted before anyone touches it. Debris bagged and taken away. Before-and-after photos of each run, sent to you before the crew leaves.
Windows, exterior only. Every reachable pane on the outside of the house, cleaned with a water-fed pole and purified water so the glass dries without streaks or towel lint. Frames wiped. Screens taken down, hand-rinsed and put back on request. Sills wiped. Upper-story windows done from the pole, not from a ladder leaned on the siding.
Not included, and we say so up front. Interior glass. Hard-water or sprinkler staining etched into the glass, which needs a separate mineral treatment and is quoted after the crew sees it. Post-construction paint, stickers or stucco. Skylights and solar panels. Pressure washing of siding, decks or driveways. Gutter guards: if a run is covered, lifting and reseating the guard adds time and is quoted by the foot before the visit, never on the day.
Twice a year for both, and the same two months, which is why one visit covers it.
Most of our Fairmount customers book cleaning services twice a year, in late spring and again in the fall, which is why one crew in one visit makes sense for them. What we find at each visit is consistent: pollen film on the south-facing glass and pollen paste in the gutters during the spring window, and a heavy leaf load in the fall. Across Colorado, hail season along the Front Range can move those dates a few weeks in either direction, and at every visit the crew checks every window on the street side.
Some homes need a third visit. Heavy tree cover over the roof means needles and grit pack the downspouts between cleanings, runoff from the roof leaves dark streaks on the siding below, and a sprinkler line that hits the glass leaves the spots that come back a day after a cleaning. A residential window near a busy road or a construction site picks up a film faster than most, and residential properties on a dusty lot need the same attention. On those homes we plan a third visit in the middle of the season instead of waiting for the next spring or fall date.
Windows tell you they need it when you see a haze on the glass that you only notice with the sun low in the sky. Gutters tell you they need it when water sheets over the edge during a rain instead of running down the downspout. Both signs usually show up before the schedule says it is time, so check the front of the house after the first hard rain of the season.
Most two-story homes are done in a morning. You do not need to be there, and you get the photos either way.
The crew calls the day before with a two-hour arrival window, and again when they are on the way.
How long. This Old House puts a professional gutter cleaning at 30 minutes to an hour on a typical house. Exterior windows on the same house run about the same again or a little more, so plan on a morning for a two-story home and most of a day for three stories or a house with a lot of glass. Gutters that have not been touched in years, steep roofs and wraparound porches run longer.
Before the crew arrives. Turn the sprinklers off the night before, so the glass is dry and the ground is not mud. Move cars off the driveway if windows face it. Keep pets inside while ladders are up. Unlock side gates. Nothing else; the crew brings its own water and power.
While they work. Gutters first, glass last, as described above. Nobody needs to be home for exterior work; the crew does not come inside. If something cannot be reached safely (a pane over a sunroom roof, a gutter run behind a tree limb) the crew photographs it and tells you rather than guessing.
After. Photos of every gutter run and the finished glass, sent by text or email before the crew leaves. The invoice matches the number quoted on the phone.
Send a photo and we tell you what it is. No argument about whether it rained.
Streaks. Purified water dries clean; a streak means something was missed, and that is on us. Send us a photo of it and we tell you what it is.
Spots that come back. Round white spots that return a day after cleaning are mineral deposits from sprinklers or hard water etched into the glass, not dirt. Cleaning cannot remove them; a mineral treatment can. The crew flags it on the visit so you are not surprised.
Rain the next day. Rain is distilled water and does not dirty clean glass by itself; what spots glass after rain is dust already on the frame or screen washing down. That is why frames and screens are done, not just the pane. If it looks worse after a storm, send the photo and we look at it.
Overflow after a cleaning. If a gutter runs clean and still sheets water over the edge in the next rain, the cause is slope, a sagging hanger or an undersized downspout, not debris. The crew notes what it saw and tells you; cleaning it again will not fix it, and we will not sell you a second cleaning for a slope problem.
Your house. Ladder stand-offs on every ladder so nothing rests on the gutter lip or dents the siding. Screens go back in the window they came out of.
Neighborhood by neighborhood, with a lead time we say out loud, and a call before the truck turns in.
Our crew works across the city as a whole, and our window cleaning services run the same way on every house. We book a slot by phone or text once we have the number of stories and a photo of the house front, and we call before we come. Our calendar fills in the two busy windows of the year, the spring season and the fall leaf drop, so booking early in those months gets you a date you want. To schedule service, call (866) 435-6328.
Nobody needs to be home for exterior work, and our washing services stay outside the house. The crew clears the gutters and downspouts before anything else, does not come inside, and sends photos of each gutter run and the finished glass before the truck leaves. Leave the side gate unlocked and tell us about any dog that needs to be kept in. The water-fed pole is how we remove dirt from the upper glass, and the rest of the house stays as you left it.
Tell us how many stories and how many windows the house has when you call, and we will give you the time window for the visit, not a guess. Condos and townhomes are quoted the same way once we know the stories and window count. Ask us for the written estimate by text and we send it the same day we speak.
Yes, our crew does both. The same two people clean the gutters and the outside of the windows in one visit, with the gutters done first and the glass last. Doing it this way keeps the dirty water from the roof off the panes we have just finished.
We do not give a figure here. The number comes from the number of stories and the approximate window count, and you can get it by calling (866) 435-6328. Send a photo of the front of the house with your call so we can see the roofline and the glass before we quote. This page covers residential jobs only, so ask about any residential and commercial work when you call.
Yes, because the outside carries most of the dirt in Fairmount. Dust, rain spots and sprinkler spots build up on the exterior glass, and even picture windows on the street side collect the same film, while the inside of the window never sees any of it. Cleaning the outside alone is a complete job for the glass on the street side of the house.
Across Colorado, the spring visit falls in late May to June and the fall visit in October to early November. Our Fairmount customers usually book one of each, and regular cleanings in those two windows keep the calendar predictable.
Not when the gutters go first. When we clear a run, the leaves, the grit and the black water come down the wall, so the roof and gutters are done before anyone touches the glass. That order keeps the clean windows clean.
Screens are rinsed and sills are wiped as part of the exterior job, and we do not bill them as extras. Tracks are cleaned where they can be reached from outside, and we use purified water rather than cleaning solutions on the glass. Ask us about any other part of the window when you book.
No, on this visit we clean the exterior glass only. Interior and exterior work is quoted as two separate jobs, and we do not do pressure washing on this visit. If you need either, tell us when you call so we can plan it separately.
You do not need to be home. Before the crew arrives, turn the sprinklers off the night before, move cars off the driveway if the windows face it, keep pets inside while the ladders are up, and unlock the side gate. That is the whole list.
Stories, rough window count, a photo of the front by text. That is a real number, not an appointment.
